Windows 10, problems after updates: which functions are compromised and when Microsoft will intervene


For operating systems Microsoft it is certainly not a good moment, given that numerous users have complained of malfunctions, even serious ones, after installing updates recently released by the Redmond giant.

The users of Windows 10 in recent days, through feedback, they had reported a series of bugs strictly connected to the download of the KB5045594 packages, an optional update, and KB5044273, a mandatory update part of “Patch Tuesday”: these problems have now been confirmed by Microsoft itself.

Released by the company towards the end of last October, the two packages had as their main objective to improve the efficiency and security of the operating system, however they unfortunately proved to be decidedly problematic. Both were in fact affected by the error message 0x800f0805 during the update operations, a malfunction that prevented numerous users from completing the installation process. The lucky few who managed to complete the procedure 100% successfully complained of a series of bugs and problems when carrying out some tasks. Specifically, reference is made to the inability to start applications such as Microsoft Teams ol’Voice assistant: programs, in fact, cannot function correctly unless they are run with administrator privileges.

Not only that, since for Windows 10 users affected by these bugs it was even impossible to boot correctly Azure Virtual Desktop (AVD): the problem occurs during the authentication phase, during which a black screen appears which can persist for a very long time, generally from 10 to 30 minutes.

After having examined the problems that have arisen on its operating system, thus confirming what has been reported by numerous customers through feedback, Microsoft has ensured that it is already working with its developers to resolve the situation. The fixes should be made available to everyone from the next “Patch Tuesday”, whose release is expected on Tuesday November 12. The invitation from the Redmond giant is to always keep your devices updated to immediately benefit from the upgrades necessary to fix bugs and security flaws.

Given the serious problems that have recently arisen for users who have already switched to Windows 11, it is worth remembering that Microsoft has confirmed that the end of support for version 10 is set for October 14, 2025.

To meet the needs of those who have difficulty making an upgrade which in most cases involves the purchase of a more powerful PC, the company has announced that users will be able to benefit from the Extended Security Updates (ESU) program, as already anticipated by IlGiornale.it.
